Excellent seafood recipe. The fish looks ugly as hell, my wife was protesting to choose it instead of the usual stuff – but at the end she agreed that the fish tastes great.

* 700g anglerfish
* 4tbsp olive oil
* flour
* 30 almonds (without skin)
* 2 cloves of garlic
* 1 slice of bread (without crusts)
* 1/2 tsp saffron
* 1 small glass of white wine
* 1 small onion chopped
* 1 medium tomato peeled and chopped
* 100ml water or fish stock
* salt and pepper
* fresh parsley
1. Cut the fish into chunks, salt it and set aside for 10 mins
2. Heat the olive oil in a frying pan and add the fish to the oil and fry it quickly until it browns on both sides then remove from the pan
3. Add the almonds, garlic and bread - fry until golden over a medium heat
4. Place the garlic, bread, almonds, saffron and white wine in a blender and mix until smooth
5. Fry the chopped onion and tomato until softened then add the sauce from the blender together with the water or stock - stir well
6. Finally return the fish pieces to the pan and simmer in the sauce for about 20 mins
7. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve
